Rewriting Pochettino history at the club just lacks class | opinion

When Mauricio Pochettino was in charge at Tottenham two camps did develop from my experience. Some thought everything he did was magical while others did not feel he had what it took to get Spurs over the line.

I will freely admit that at times I had a foot in both camps but overall, I felt that he did a remarkable job and that in the end it was the players that let him down.

There were times that I was very frustrated, we should have won silverware, too often we were the better team and came up short and Poch does have to carry some responsibility for that but with a chairman like Daniel Levy, he was always hamstrung.

Not refreshing the squad was criminal and Levy has to take the brunt of criticism for that and I struggle to think of any manager that could have maintained the success that Pochettino had achieved whilever Levy kept his hands in his pockets.

We reached the Champions League final, in my opinion we should have won it on the night, that was a thing of fantasy just a few seasons before and yet there we were, at the top table.

Pochettino did that and he made us title contenders, he did a job better than a hell of a lot of previous managers, he made us competitive again.

Trying to rewrite his history with us, in my opinion, is wrong, he probably did have to be fired but anyone denying that he did a truly remarkable job overall simply lacks class, that is what Arsenal does, we are better than that and should acknowledge what the Argentine did achieve instead of denigrating those achievements.

Just my two pennies worth.
